"The latest dates have been given. _The geographical notes
which accompany the historical incidents are a novel addition,
and exceedingly helpful._ The size also commends it, making it
convenient for constant reference, while the three divisions and
careful elimination of minor and uninteresting incidents make
it much easier to find dates and events about which accuracy is
necessary. Sir William Hamilton avers that too retentive a memory
tends to hinder the development of the judgment by presenting too
much for decision. A work like this is thus better than memory.
It is a 'mental larder' which needs no care, and whose contents
are ever available."--_New York University Quarterly._
